| In the spring of 1In the spring of 1970, the force of the Vietnam antiwar movement came to Reno and the University of Nevada, Reno in ways that jolted many Nevadans into taking notice. The interviews collected in this volume speak not only of Governor's Day, but also the larger politics of the war, concerns for the environment, reflections on higher education, and speculations about the future. These more recent interviews can be found in a second volume published by the UNOHP, Governor's Day 1970: A Retrospective View. The events surrounding Governor's Day can teach us lessons about the turbulence in our country during the Vietnam years, prompting us to rethink the political and economic forces that shaped what we have considered history. |
